#PhysicsFactlet I haven't made a single scientific animation in months. I just don't have the mental space right now. But I am preparing a series of lectures on scattering for the Plasmonica 2026 School (https://www.plasmonica.it/2026school/), and it feels like a good excuse to make a few new ones.
This one shows a simple finite element simulation of a pulse scattering on a small dielectric obstacle.
@doqunbop Yeah they would. Unfortunately, that's not really practical. Lemme explain: Detail is good, but it needs to be consistent across all parts(mesh). A small part can have 1000 triangles. To get the same detail on a big one, it may need up to 7000. And larger means higher LOD distance. If I ramp up details, some meshes will end up with +10000 triangles. Means much, MUCH smaller levels.
@mariosiniscalchi leggevo tempo fa che:"In un’auto di colore bianco, la temperatura interna può raggiungere dai 25 ai 55°, ma se la carrozzeria è nera, può persino raggiungere i 70° nello stesso lasso di tempo. Dopo i primi 15 minuti, la temperatura continua a salire, ma con una velocità minore, stabilizzandosi intorno ai 60° per un’auto chiara e superando gli 80° per un’auto scura." @andrea_ferrero
